Introduction
This document provides instructions to install a 1U, 1.5U, or 2U switch (or SAN Router) in a 19-in. (48.3 cm) EIA
cabinet using the Fixed Rack Mount Kit.
The supported switches are listed in Table 1. The switch can be installed so that the port side is either flush with the
front rails or recessed from the front rails. A recessed position allows a more gradual bend in the fiber optic cables
connected to the switch.
Installation requirements
Allow 15 to 30 minutes to complete this procedure. Note the following requirements to ensure correct installation
and operation:
• Provide space in a 19-in. (48.3 cm) EIA cabinet, as required for the switch type, with a minimum distance of
28.25 in. (71.76 cm) and a maximum distance of 29.88 in. (75.90 cm) between the front and back rails.
• Verify that the additional weight of the switch does not exceed the cabinet’s weight limits.

• Ensure that an electrical branch circuit with the following characteristics is available:
- Required voltage and frequency as indicated in the hardware reference manual. (200-230 VAC is always
preferred)
- Protection by a circuit breaker in accordance with local electrical codes.
- Supply circuit, line fusing, and wire size that conform to the electrical rating on the switch nameplate.
- Grounded outlet compatible with the power cord and installed by a licensed electrician.
• Ensure that all equipment installed in the cabinet is grounded through a reliable branch circuit connection. Do
not rely on a secondary connection to a branch circuit, such as a power strip.
• Ensure that the cabinet is mechanically secured to ensure stability.
• Ensure that the air temperature at the fan inlet is less than 104
o
Fahrenheit (40
o
Celsius) during switch
operation.
• Ensure that the airflow available at the air vents meets the minimum requirements for the switch.
ATTENTION
Install the switch with the fan side facing the air-intake aisle. The chassis air intake is on the fan side and exhaust is
on the port side.
Tool requirements and parts list
The following items are required to install a switch using the fixed rack mount kit:
• Clamps or other means of temporarily supporting the switch in the cabinet.
• Phillips #2 screwdriver with torque capability.
• 1/4 in. slotted-blade screwdriver with torque capability.
ATTENTION
Use the screws specified for use with the switch. Longer screws can damage the switch.
Ensure that the items listed in Table 2 and illustrated in Figure 1 are included in the kit.

FIGURE 4 Position the rear and front brackets
Attaching rear brackets to cabinet rails
Complete the following steps to attach the rear brackets to the cabinet rails.
1. Attach the right rear bracket (Item 4) to the right rear cabinet rail using two 10-32 x 5/8 in. screws (Item 7) and
two retainer nuts (Item 8) (Figure 5).
2. Repeat step 1 to attach the left rear bracket (Item 3) to the left rear cabinet rail.
3. Tighten the 10-32 x 5/8 in. screws (Item 7) to a torque of 25 in.-lbs (29 cm-kgs).
ATTENTION
Connect the power cords to a grounded outlet only. Ensure that any power cord is routed so that it is not exposed to
stress. Leave a minimum service loop of 6 in. in the power cord(s) at the connection to switch. This allows enough
freedom of movement to plug and unplug the power cord(s).
4. Provide power to the switch by connecting the power cord(s) to the power connectors on the switch and a power
outlet. Some switches require you to flip a power switch to be powered on.
NOTE
Do not connect the switch to the network until the IP address is correctly set. Refer to the appropriate hardware
reference manual for information on setting the IP address for the switch.
